To date, HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH has travelled over 27,000 nautical miles during her maiden Carrier Strike Group deployment.

The Government does not disclose operational information about the fuel consumption of Royal Navy assets as to do so would, or would be likely to, prejudice the capability, effectiveness or security of the Armed Forces.
